Since 1987 when we first took guests to experience the wonder of Belize, we had an immediate connection with the people and culture. To this day, we still continue to have a special interaction with the Mayan, Creole and Garifuna people of Belize both through our adventure trips and with our incredible Belizean guides.

Here we look at the fascinating Garifuna culture and how the people of Belize celebrate Garifuna life through song, dance, music, language, food, dress and fantastic costumes:

Belize has 240 miles of coastline on the Caribbean Sea and is home to around 450 islands or ‘Cayes’. We look at the best beaches on the mainland and further afield where some of the real gems can be found, on the atolls that stretch along the Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System. This continuous reef structure runs the length of Belize, parallel to the coast and is one of the most pristine reef ecosystems in the Western Hemisphere.

With the opening of the lobster season in Belize on June 15th, we wanted to share a Belizean lobster recipe. The delicious Lobster Robert recipe comes from Chef Rob’s Gourmet Cafe, located at the Parrot Cove Lodge in Hopkins.

Introducing the Jungle & Beach Explorer trip to Bocawina Rainforest Resort along with 3 nights in either Placencia or Hopkins Seaside villages

Its been an exciting year! Our recent partnership with Bocawina Rainforest Resort and Adventures has allowed us expand what we can offer in Belize year round. This off-the grid jungle lodge has been super popular with our guests, and our next step was to pair it with beach time at some of Belize's seaside villages.
